A tRNA modification with aminovaleramide facilitates AUA decoding in protein synthesis.

PubMed Abstract: Modified tRNA anticodons are critical for proper mRNA translation during protein synthesis. It is generally thought that almost all bacterial tRNAs use a modified cytidine-lysidine (L)-at the first position (34) of the anticodon to decipher the AUA codon as isoleucine (Ile). Here we report that tRNAs from plant organelles and a subset of bacteria contain a new cytidine derivative, designated 2-aminovaleramididine (avaC). Like L34, avaC34 governs both Ile-charging ability and AUA decoding. Cryo-electron microscopy structural analyses revealed molecular details of codon recognition by avaC34 with a specific interaction between its terminal amide group and an mRNA residue 3'-adjacent to the AUA codon. These findings reveal the evolutionary variation of an essential tRNA modification and demonstrate the molecular basis of AUA decoding mediated by a unique tRNA modification.
